Family History

Today was a day off council work! I'd booked some time ago to attend a Family History Day with my husband, organised by Cleveland Family History Society. We're both interested in our roots and have been doing some research. This was an opportunity to hear some interesting talks on wider aspects, and very enjoyable too. Strangely, it also turned into a chance encounter with one of his more distant relatives and with an old school friend of mine whom I haven't seen for several years since we were both at a reunion. Altogether a good day, if nothing at all to do with Eaglescliffe ward.
